If you are environmentally conscious, you have probably considered heating your home using biomass energy. There are many different types of set ups that you can configure however the most efficient and cheapest option is to create a wood burning furnace. Through burning wood, you can generate enough heat to power a large house. Not only can a wood burning furnace only burn wood but it can burn other organic matter such as plant material and sewage.

The cost is negligible when you compare it to a regular furnace. Through hiring an emergency furnace repair vaughan company to set up your biomass furnace, you can get a good price and a fast and efficient set up. Choosing the right furnace company is important as some systems are not as efficient as others. Some biomass furnaces require more repairs than others.

Getting away from traditional furnaces are important if you are concerned for the environment. You may be worried about the smell related to the combustion of organic materials but it is not a concern, A biomass furnace is situated far away from a home so there is no impact to you or your health.

Biomass energy is produced through the combustion of plant and animal wastes. While being a renewable sources it also pollutes the environment. Some examples of biomass energy sources include, wood such as branches or tree stumps. Waste from paper manufacturing facilities can also be used to produce biomass energy. A variety of other plants that can be burned to produce energy such as hemp, corn sugarcane and bamboo. In Brazil, the eucalyptus plant is burned fro the production of energy. The problem with burning plant crops that are also used for food is that it increases their prices making it expensive to those in developing countries. There has been much ethical debate on this topic of using food crops for biomass energy.

One unique biomass energy production method suggested by a Toronto cattle farmer involves the use of methane. Methane gas is collected from the livestock and is combusted to produce energy for the farm. The farm runs on its own energy and does not need any electricity from the grid to operate. The farm also sells organic turkey which it carries in its meat store. Waste meat and fats is also used to produce energy to sustain the farm operation.

Biomass energy also provides higher incomes to struggling farmers as the value of crops used for energy production are valued higher than food crops. According to the UCSCSA , tripling the use of biomass energy in the United States can provide $20 billion to farmers and reduce global warming. It is important to note that all the byproduct waste from biomass energy is easily disposed of and biodegradable.

The conference will focus on utilizing biomass removed from public and private forests to provide a reliable supply for bioenergy production and wood products businesses. As a renewable, domestic energy source, woody biomass is helping America to reduce its reliance on non-renewable foreign energy. It is also stimulating domestic markets for wood products. Treating our forests also provides cost savings by reducing wildfire threats and the staggering costs of fighting those fires. The “Bioenergy and Wood Products Conference” will stress these themes with presentations by experts from around the country, tours, displays, poster presentations and other activities.

This meeting will take place on October 28, 2016 and many keynote environmentalist speakers will attend. We encourage you to sign up once the event link becomes available. Stand your ground and stop the biomass movement!
